Garden pond - we have a leak !!!

As posted earlier this year (Jan/Feb) decided to create a garden pond from a clamshell sandpit that was lying around in the backyard. Needs topping up now and then due to evaporation etc. but over the last few weeks top up's have been to frequent - hmm.



Topped up yesterday and this morning water level is noticeably down, checked around the pond and yep ground is damp - we have a leak and it's getting worse - bugger.

Hope I can get another clamshell that will fit into the one in there.

Acoustic guitar recording

The First Noel - My first attempt at recording something on a smart phone and posting to Facebook. The audio is disappointing so I need to do some research and then go shopping to setup better recording facilities. This Christmas carol has a lot of cord changes and I stuffed up a bit but never mind I'll be back with hopefully a cleaner version - with decent audio.

Chook annex rebuild - Part 1

Buying the materials

Just arrived home from Bunnings with a load of stuff for the chook annex rebuild.

As usual to fit larger stuff in the car I remove the back seat which gives us a nice load space.

Bandsaw 29 - Base with castors

Jigsaw table – cutting wood gears

A few days ago I blogged about my homemade jigsaw table and since then have been trying it out cutting various things with different shapes etc.


The thought come to mind to give it the ‘ultimate test’ so to speak  - cut some wood gears.
